Tillpad MCP Server | Awesome MCP Servers

Tillpad MCP

Bounded storage and search for agent jobs.

Tillpad gives agents namespaced key-value storage, file upload + semantic search, budget-aware metering, and run keys that wipe with a signed receipt when the job is done.

Live endpoint: https://tillpad.cnrcode.com/mcp

This repository is the public catalog and schema stub for directory crawlers. It is not the hosted server. Point MCP clients at the live URL above with a Tillpad API key. Running the TypeScript in this repo does not store or search anything.

Agent guide: see AGENTS.md for discovery URLs, auth, and MCP connect snippets.

Get an API key

Zero-human (agents)

POST https://tillpad.cnrcode.com/api/agents/bootstrap with { "email": "agent@example.com" } → bootstrapToken (no outbound mail).
POST https://tillpad.cnrcode.com/api/billing/machine-pay with Authorization: Bearer <bootstrapToken> and optional { "sku": "pro_prepaid_30d" }.
Settle Stripe MPP ($9.00 / 30 days) → response includes secret (tp_…) and planPeriodEnd.

See scratchpad.txt and llms-full.txt. Legal: Terms.

Human path

Open tillpad.cnrcode.com and create an account.
Subscribe to Tillpad Pro on Pricing, then mint an API key in the dashboard. Secrets start with tp_.
Use an account key for ongoing access, or a run key when the job should expire and wipe.

Never commit a real key. Use the tp_… placeholder in configs.

Connect a client

Transport is Streamable HTTP. Send Authorization: Bearer tp_… on every request.

Discovery manifests on the product host:

Tools

Schemas in src/server.ts match the hosted server.

Tool	What it does
`usage_get`	Current period usage and quotas
`budget_get`	Remaining quotas, soft thresholds, and a checkout URL
`budget_estimate`	Preflight 402/429 before spending (`textLength` / `byteLength` for `rag_index`)
`billing_machine_pay`	How agents unlock prepaid Pro or buy SKUs via Stripe MPP (`sku` optional)
`agent_bootstrap`	Zero-human onboarding: bootstrap token from email (no outbound mail)
`keys_create`	Mint a run/sub key from an account `tp_` key
`kvp_put`	Store a string under a namespace/key (response includes `budget`)
`kvp_get`	Read a namespaced value
`kvp_delete`	Delete a KVP key
`kvp_list`	List keys in a namespace
`file_upload`	Upload UTF-8 text for RAG indexing (prefLights `rag_index`)
`files_list`	List uploaded files
`files_types`	Supported upload extensions and MIME types
`rag_search`	Semantic search over indexed documents
`inspect_storage`	Namespace inventory (scoped to the key when applicable)
`run_finish`	Wipe namespaces bound to this run key; returns a signed wipe receipt
`support_contact`	Contact Tillpad support from a Pro account; replies go to the account email

Typical agent loop

Mint a run key in the dashboard (dedicated namespace, TTL, optional op budget).
Store working state with kvp_put and/or file_upload.
Retrieve with kvp_get / kvp_list and rag_search.
Call run_finish to wipe run namespaces and keep the signed receipt.

Use budget_estimate before large index jobs. budget_get / usage_get show what is left in the period.

Auth and errors

401 — missing or invalid Authorization: Bearer tp_…
402 / 429 — plan or quota. JSON includes code, status, actions, and budget
- actions[].type: "checkout" — hosted Stripe Checkout URL for a recurring human subscription
- actions[].type: "machine_pay" — agent prepaid Pro (30/90 days) or top-up SKUs via Stripe MPP; default sku pro_prepaid_30d at $9.00

This is Stripe Machine Payments Protocol, not ChatGPT Instant Checkout / ACP.

The Tillpad product (Worker, billing, storage) is closed source. This catalog is MIT-licensed so directories can list tools and install snippets.

Directory listing

Registry name: com.cnrcode/tillpad (domain namespace via cnrcode.com).

Ensure https://cnrcode.com/.well-known/mcp-registry-auth is deployed (cnrcode-site repo).
Set GitHub repo secret MCP_PRIVATE_KEY (hex; see cnrcode-site key generation script).
Push a version tag so GitHub Actions publishes server.json to the official MCP Registry:
```
git tag v0.1.1
git push origin v0.1.1
```
Optionally submit https://github.com/number1101/tillpad-mcp at mcp.directory/submit.

Glama

This repo includes a stdio catalog stub (src/main.ts) so Glama can build a container, start the process, and introspect the 17 tool definitions. It does not implement storage or billing — clients still connect to the hosted endpoint above.

Listing: glama.ai/mcp/servers/number1101/tillpad-mcp

After claiming via glama.json, configure the Dockerfile admin page:

Field	Value
Build steps	`["npm ci", "npm run build"]`
CMD arguments	`["node", "dist/main.js"]`
Env schema	default (empty — no credentials needed)
Placeholder params	`{}`

Glama generates its own Dockerfile from that form; the repo Dockerfile is for local smoke tests only.
